Annual R7 Fairwind Race.
This is where the problems all started a region meeting called R7 at
Bass Lake CA. In this picturesque setting friends meet to have a
little r/c boat race.
In the first R7 race (May of 1998) my boat came in second. Unfortunately we had no pictures of the rumored event.
But the second year I changed some things on my boat to make it a bit better.
I replaced the old sails that had holes still in them from where the battery acid ate them,
modified the mast crane, improved the stay sheeting and changed the rudder arm.
We won two of the three heats, and we have pictures to prove it.
Wasn't it a beautiful day!
